Honestly the fact that in 2012 celebrities coming out is greeted with a resounding "so what?" is a good thing.
To me it puts us further from "tolerance" and closer to "acceptance", hopefully someday we'll reach the point where gay people won't even need to come out. They'll show up with whomever they like, introduce them as their husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend/partner and no body will bat an eyelash.
No, we're not there yet, but we're getting closer.
